May 2021 - Citizenship Applications

[Hushus]

does any now know how long it take to get the test invite for paper application after bg mine was done on 25 jan 2022 no reply after that any estimate when could I get it? thx

I think you, me, @cooldoc80 , @shahab ali and @thaikashaikh are having almost the same time lines. There is no specific time line, it depends on everyone's case i guess. I think they are almost exclusively processing online applications for the past couple of months though.

Congratulations! When is your Oath ceremony taking place

That’s not been communicated about yet

 

[momieva]

That’s not been communicated about yet

Ok thanks

 

[asing711]

Ok thanks

I realized later that I had mistyped. The oath ceremony is not in progress, it is "not started".

Apparently IRCC has increased the capacity of its virtual ceremonies and have been conducting ceremonies of 100+ individuals. Hopefully this'll clear the backlog a lot faster.

Not sure, but I think much less. Maybe someone else can confirm.

Where do you see decision made on online application?

 

[husainsd]

Are they processing paper applications ? Mine has been stuck in In Progress since September 2021. I tried contacting them but no response. Any paper applicants who have received any response recently?

Where do you see decision made on online application?

there is no Dm for Online , All the section except Oaths should be complete = DM

 

[momieva]

there is no Dm for Online , All the section except Oaths should be complete = DM

So its fair to say decision has been made on my application as all are completed except Oath that is not started
